Hi Steve -- thanks for responding to Darcy's request for help. She is
operating from a borrowed laptop and it won't let her receive posts from
this group -- go figure -- so asked me to forward your post to her. I
did. She doesn't have cancer, she has alpha lung disease (I think that's
what it's called). Guys -- she is desperate for help. The posts with
H202 configurations are no help at all. Please -- she's in trouble. MA
Hi there,
All of these things are scary - especially the names!
Here is some basic info:
COPD -- emphysema and/or chronic bronchitis.
Alternative Names
Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency; Bronchitis: Chronic; Chronic Bronchitis;
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease; Emphysema
Chronic obstructive lung disease (COLD), also known as chronic obstructive
pulmonary disease (COPD), is characterized by a limitation of the airflow
in the lung, which develops over time and is not totally reversible.
COLD is associated with a set of breathing-related symptoms:
Chronic cough.
Spitting or coughing mucus (expectoration).
Breathlessness upon exertion.
Progressive reduction in the ability to exhale.
They are all essentially the same thing. Destruction of the lung tissue
over time - almost always due to environmental factors combined with
self-induced injury, ( bad diet, smoking, e.g. )
Before any gains can be made for her the following are necessary bits of data:
1. Does she smoke? Is she still smoking?
2. Does she exercise? ( No matter how ill, there are exercises necessary
to avoid shutting down)
3. MOST important: What is she taking? Remember Steroids like fake
Cortisone destroy people by the million every year. Antibiotics? The name
says it all.
4. What eating "lifestyle" does she have? Unless helping her
immune/repair system, little can be done.
However, from observation and reports, it is medical "treatment" that
exacerbates the problem in most cases and it is vital to go on the net and
look up the side-effects of any recent medications. Then get off them.
Cheers,
Himagain
WHO REMINDS ALL THAT THIS IS AN OPINION BASED ON ANECDOTAL DATA AND I AM
NOT A MEDICAL FRANCHISEE IN ANY WAY - THIS IS NOT PROPOSED TREATMENT,
MERELY INFORMATION. DUE DILIGENCE IS VITAL BEFORE TAKING ANY ACTION BASED
UPON IT.
